Matthew 15:29-39

Jesus Heals the Crowds

29 ^aAnd departing from there, Jesus went along by ^bthe Sea of Galilee, and having gone up on the mountain, He was sitting there. 30 And ¹large crowds came to Him, bringing with them those who were lame, crippled, blind, mute, and many others, and they laid them down at His feet; and ^aHe healed them. 31 So the crowd marveled as they saw the mute speaking, the crippled ¹restored, and the lame walking, and the blind seeing; and they ^aglorified the God of Israel.

Jesus Feeds Four Thousand

32 ^aAnd Jesus called His disciples to Him, and said, “^bI feel compassion for the crowd, because they ¹have remained with Me now three days and have nothing to eat; and I do not want to send them away hungry, lest they faint on the way.” 33 And the disciples *said to Him, “Where would we get so many loaves in this desolate place to satisfy such a large crowd?” 34 And Jesus *said to them, “How many loaves do you have?” And they said, “Seven, and a few small fish.” 35 And He directed the crowd to ¹sit down on the ground; 36 and He took the seven loaves and the fish; and ^agiving thanks, He broke them and kept giving them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds. 37 And they all ate and were satisfied, and they picked up what was left over of the broken pieces, seven large ^abaskets full. 38 And those who ate were four thousand men, besides women and children.
39 And sending away the crowds, Jesus got into ^athe boat and came to the region of ^bMagadan.
